+The main idea behind this document is to demonstrate various either
+contributed or inspired chapter styles for the memoir class.
+
+If you have style you would like to contribute a style/implementation,
+please send it with a minimal example to daleif+memoir@imf.au.dk
+and I will include it into this document.

+Memoir Chapter style Showcase -- README

+
+The showcase source consists of one single file that includes
+everything needed to compile the document.
+
+

+
+MemoirChapStyles.tex -- source code
+MemoirChapStyles.pdf -- compiled showcase
+README -- this document
+
+

+1.5 A new mempatch version has been released including several new

+ also added the the daleif3 style

+ the spacing after \chapter*

+1.3: Added the reparticle, southall and chappell styles from the
+ memoir addendum. Thanks to David Chadd for reminding me.
+
+
+
+How to compile this showcase document:
+--------------------------------------
+
+Requirements:
+
+A fairly new LaTeX installation
+
+pdfcrop (comes at least with TeX Live 2005)
+pdftops (comes with Xpdf, only for Linux, sorry)
+perl (see later)
+
+
+To compile:
+
+Run the document once through latex or pdflatex.
+This will create
+
+ process.pl
+ chapterexample.tex
+
+and a lot of
+
+ *-style.tex
+
+files
+
+Now run (you might need to change the permissions on process.pl)
+
+ ./process.pl -f MemoirChapStyles.styles
+
+This will process all of the *-style files mentioned in MemoirChapStyles.styles.
+It will run
+
+ pdflatex XXX-style.tex
+ pdfcrop XXX-style.pdf tmp.pdf
+ mv tmp.pdf XXX-style.pdf
+ pdftops -eps XXX-style.pdf
+
+
+(plus a little extra for the EQ style)
+
+The reason for going over pdflatex, pdfcrop, pdftops is that dvips is
+not good at creating correct bounding boxes for files that contain
+postscript effects, pdfcrop does a much better job.
+
+Then run latex or pdflatex on MemoirChapStyles.tex a few times to get all
+references up to date.
